CHANEL MADEMOISELLE PRIVE BIJOUX DE DIAMANTS “PLUME” WATCH BY CHANEL
Pearl marquetry and diamonds mounted in 18K white Gold.
Of the many Chanel symbols and icons, the feather is perhaps the most cherished by connoisseurs in the know. It comes from a lesser known part of Gabrielle Chanel’s history. Before venturing into fashion and haute couture, Chanel actually established herself in Paris, in a boutique at 21 rue Cambon, as a milliner. Her first creation that was presented to the press in 1910 was a feathered hat.
